Some scholars have suggested that the media creates a culture of fear because it often
focuses on the negative effects that certain social conditions can have. For example,
scholars may say that the media may focus on the possibility of an epidemic of an
infectious disease when the probability that it will happen is low. Do you think that the
media creates a culture of fear? Why or why not?

Yes

Explanation:

I believe that media creates a culture of fear because sometimes it focuses only on the negative side. If we really think about the news that are shown on the TV, they are always referring to deaths, robbery, diseases, etc. We need to acknowledge, that the news they show on tv are the ones that interest people and are the ones that are more “eye catching”. That is why they are always focusing on the negative and making things bigger than they actually are. That is why someone who watches news all the time becomes paranoid of the things that may happen in the world.

the underground railroad (apocope of the metropolitan railroad) is a system of urban trains located within a city and its metropolitan area. it is characterized for being a massive transport of passengers in the big cities, uniting diverse zones and their environs, with high capacity and frequency and in segregated form to other systems of transport. metropolitan railroads are built underground or on the surface, although most systems use mixed models where sections are combined in both modalities.

1 - as a result, the metro tends to reduce car travel for two reasons: first, due to the greater transfer of users from the car and, second, due to the reduction in the acquisition of cars in homes located in sectors near the stations of the metro.

2 -the metro allows to contribute effectively to the achievement of all the objectives of an urban development policy: it improves the efficiency of the city's economy by reducing travel costs and also generates a higher level of activities in the city center, taking advantage of of the agglomeration economies.

3 -it is a clean means of transport, since it uses renewable energy (usually electricity), taking care of the environment and avoiding excessive pollution.
